gs5-1dollarJust what can a dollar do these days in terms of purchasing power? Well, it is enough to provide someone living in a third world country with a nutritious meal, but in the US, it ain’t gonna do much other than get you some trinkets at the dollar store, or perhaps buy you a cheap burger at a fast food joint on a promotion. This coming Black Friday, however, would see Best Buy offer you the Samsung Galaxy S5 for a mere $1 – although the catch would be requiring you to sign up for a two-year contract, which is not too much of a catch at all in the first place.

This particular deal is made available to those who are rocking to Verizon, Sprint or AT&T. Assuming you happen to be a member of Verizon Edge, AT&T Next or Sprint Easy Pay, you will be able to place “$0” down (if well-qualified), and receive a $50 gift card in return, where all you need to do from there would be to meet the monthly installment payments and you’re good to go.

As for the hardware specifications of the Samsung Galaxy S5 itself, well, it is time to refresh our memories, as it sports a 5.1” Super AMOLED display at 1080 x 1920 resolution, with a pixel density of 432ppi, accompanied by a quad-core 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 CPU with an Adreno 330 GPU, 2GB RAM, 32GB of internal memory, a microSD memory card slot, a 2MP selfie camera and a 16MP back camera with Android 4.4.2 KitKat right out of the box.
